If you’re interested in the ancient times of roleplaying, in the roots of our beautiful hobby, then getting to know the work and legacy of Dave Arneson and Blackmoor should be on your bucket list. Better yet: play like Dave and the Twin City gamers did. We sure do, and I can only recommend it to every roleplayer (even and especially to folks new to the hobby who only know the modern incarnation of the game with the ampersand).

So do yourself a favor and celebrate 2020. Because it’s another year god has granted you life, and because it’s the Year of Blackmoor.
